New reports on court documents in Takeoff’s mother’s lawsuit against the venue at which he met a tragic end in late 2022 reveal some very interesting arguments. Moreover, according to RadarOnline, the owner of 810 Billiards & Bowling in Houston placed all blame for the murder on its charged suspect, Patrick Xavier Clark, and his possession of an illegal gun. However, the location also seems to have attributed responsibility to Quavo, Take, and their associates who participated in gambling outside of the venue. Since this lawsuit’s filing in June of 2023, no settlement is in sight and 810 Billiards & Bowling want its dismissal.
Furthermore, Takeoff’s mother Titania Davenport claimed that the bowling alley knew of Quavo and her son’s arrival beforehand and should’ve bolstered security, according to The Los Angeles Times. She maintains that the former Migo was an innocent onlooker during this incident, one that 810 Billiards & Bowling should assume responsibility for given their knowledge of the possibility of large gatherings to see the rappers. In addition, Davenport claimed that some of the venue’s patrons were the one to intimidate Take, cause physical and verbal altercations, and ultimately lead to his loss. She seeks over a million dollars in damages for emotional distress, funeral expenses, and her son’s personal injuries.

Nevertheless, Titania Davenport has other issues to handle around Takeoff’s death, as his father Kenneth Ball is listed as an intervenor in this case against 810 Billiards & Bowling. The Georgia MC’s parents have battled over his estate for a while now, as he had no will and, according to RapUp, left around $26 million when he passed. AllHipHop also reported that Ball seeks $1 million in damages from the venue for similar reasons to Davenport. Quavo’s assistant also filed a lawsuit against the location in August of 2023, claiming similar irresponsibility when it comes to security and pointing to his own sustained injuries from the shootout.
Meanwhile, after authorities charged Patrick Xavier Clark with the murder, he remains on house arrest until his next court date for August 2024. Perhaps we will see this year if there will truly be justice for the late legend, at least when it comes to who was responsible for his passing. But justice will never heal these wounds. Instead, that’s up to his family, his loved ones, his legacy, and to us as fans to advocate for the prevention of these incidents in the future and keep Takeoff’s memory alive.

The Astroworld Festival tragedy of 2021 is one of the most infamous hip-hop history moments of the decade so far, and for good reason. Ten lives were lost, and hundreds more injured, and scrutiny for the event’s organization, planning, and execution followed immediately. While Travis Scott himself seems mostly cleared of all wrongdoing, there is still a lot of conversation around his personal responsibility and accountability. But even more important in the civil litigation against the rapper and Live Nation, the concert series organizers, are new reports from AllHipHop and other sources about what could’ve been prevented.
Furthermore, these new revelations indicate that Astroworld Festival’s Safery and Risk Director for 2021, Seyth Boardman, warned organizers about overcrowding before this aspect resulted in the tragedy, according to court documents reportedly obtained by AHH. Specifically, he made these claims days before they planned accommodated 50,000 festival patrons, a number that reportedly rose by 5,000 individuals on the day of Travis Scott’s concert series. In addition, these new filings reveal that organizers thought they had to account for five square feet per person due to the fire safety code. In fact, they reportedly had to hold the standard at seven square feet.

As such, this new scrutiny centers around the alleged irresponsibility displayed by Live Nation and Travis Scott by underestimating the space necessary to prevent a crowd surge or overcrowding. What’s more is that litigators specifically claim that 50,000 people fit in a space that should’ve accounted for a crowd of 34,500. Additional claims include a lack of action when it comes to folks entering the festival without a ticket and insufficient monitoring for those who needed help in the crowd. This is such a big element that prosecutors identified security breaches as a principal contributor to the disaster.
Meanwhile, there’s still significant legal action from about 4,900 patrons that seek billions of dollars in damages. Drake’s legal team still wants the court to remove him from these lawsuits despite performing that night alongside Scott, since he had no knowledge of security concerns or the festival’s organization. The Houston MC cooperated with police, and the current focus is on the safety guidelines and event planning that caused this tragedy.

Underground rap duo Armand Hammer released their latest full-length LP We Buy Diabetic Test Strips on streaming services in September 2023. Despite this fact, if you pull up the record on Spotify or Apple Music, you’ll see a release date of February 27, 2024, along with a few noticeable differences from the original September release. The Armand Hammer album has introduced a new bonus track titled “Doves” to its end, but mysteriously, the two Junglepussy features that were previously present on tracks “Y’all Can’t Stand Right Here” and “Empire BLVD” are now missing.
Fans immediately began to notice these changes after the updated version of the album went live in February, prompting an outpouring of questions as to why Armand Hammer members billy woods and Elucid would want to remove Junglepussy from the album. While no concrete answers have been provided by any party involved, subtle hints suggest a possible reason for this change.
On the day the Armand Hammer project re-released, Junglepussy shared a post on social media that may relate to her removal. Her tweet read “I remove myself from situations where I’m being treated poorly no matter what I don’t stick around to save face for nobody.” This prompted fans to inquire if billy woods and Elucid mistreated the New York femcee or if the associated management and label executives involved with distributing We Buy Diabetic Test Strips underpaid her.
Subsequent posts shared to Junglepussy’s X account seemed to shade the underground rap duo, including a March 2 post that reads, “I’ve had to teach artists I used to look up to that they cannot treat me like sh** just bc they’ve been thru sh**” as well as a March 9 post which says “I had no idea choosing to remove myself wud keep my name in the mouths of these dusties.” While no party has confirmed that these comments are related to the Armand Hammer situation, the timing certainly casts suspicion on their connection.
Junglepussy’s Features Were Controversial Among Fans

While Junglepussy’s social media posts hint at potential mistreatment or underpayment by Armand Hammer, some fans have actively supported the removal of her inclusions online. A number of Reddit commenters have stated displeasure with Junglepussy’s spacey, spoken-word delivery and brash, grinding lyrics, and have found that they enjoy “Y’all Can’t Stand Right Here” and “Empire BLVD” more without her vocals.
Regardless, many other fans prefer the original Junglepussy versions of the songs, making the new iterations seem shallow and incomplete. Armand Hammer have scrubbed all versions of Junglepussy’s vocals from streaming services, even eliminating the tracks from downloaded Spotify libraries. In this way, it seems clear that Armand Hammer are trying to unceremoniously sweep Junglepussy’s contribution to the record under the rug, despite there being droves of fans who stream “Y’all Can’t Stand Right Here” and “Empire BLVD” just to hear her well-articulated sultry tones.
The duo behind Armand Hammer have not acknowledged or responded to Junglepussy’s removal from the record, solidifying fan theories that something personal went awry between the three New York artists behind the scenes. billy woods, known for being highly elusive and difficult to reach online, has not made any public statements. However, Elucid has continued to champion the rerelease of We Buy Diabetic Test Strips on social media.
The official Armand Hammer Spotify account shared the new album with the caption “Featuring new bonus track Doves” without making any mention of the other changes. For now, it seems that the only way to hear Junglepussy’s original verses is to dig up YouTube archives of the two tracks or purchase early presses of physical We Buy Diabetic Test Strips releases.
E.Ness is the latest celebrity to speak out about the wave of sexual assault accusations against Diddy, which also involve various other alleged crimes. Moreover, he’s taking the side of folks who think this is all fake and a ploy to punish him based on false claims. For those unaware, Ness was part of Da Band, the Bad Boy rap group whose creation and career was chronicled in the MTV reality series Making The Band 2. This defense from a label mate also adds onto Sean Combs’ own denials, but their voices are quite small in the wider discourse on these allegations.
“It’s a smear campaign,” E.Ness claimed concerning the Diddy lawsuits during an interview with Directed BY CEO Nafees on YouTube. “That’s what’s happening with Puff. It’s a smear campaign. And what they usually do is they go to your personal habits. They start attacking your personal habits, your girlfriends, your exes. Then they try to find something to attack you through those vessels.” He also alleged that this is the “classic rollout” that they gave other alleged celebrity abusers like R. Kelly, Michael Jackson, Mike Tyson, and Bill Cosby.
However, despite all this speculation and conflicting narratives, Diddy has popped out at least a few times for the public eye beyond just his defenses of himself. Recently, he and his family hit up Rolling Loud Los Angeles over the weekend, where he and his children got to see Ye and Ty Dolla $ign, Nicki Minaj, and likely other sets at the festival. Still, the Bad Boy mogul remains quite tight-lipped and private amid all these claims, as he has a lot of legal baggage to handle. While others agree with E.Ness’ assessment, there are far too many testimonies with too much weight to ignore.
Meanwhile, as the New York icon’s charter school also reportedly struggles to stay up to snuff, he will need many solutions his way fast. Nevertheless, what most folks want is accountability under a fair legal process, and for the industry to reckon with long-term avoidance of crimes like these. As impossible as it sounds, that fight is what matters most. For more news and the latest updates on E.Ness and Diddy, check back in with HNHH.
Billy Dee Williams brought Lando Calrissian to life in 1980’s The Empire Strikes Back, entering the minds and hearts of Star Wars fans everywhere since. But amid reports of the development of a new movie based on Cloud City’s suave administrator and eventual Rebel general, he had some light teasing to do to the character’s young interpreter, Donald Glover, also known as Childish Gambino. Moreover, Glover portrayed Lando in Solo: A Star Wars Story in 2018, and his take on a younger version of the character was pretty well-acclaimed despite other issues folks had with Solo. Yet Billy Dee thinks that the entertainer’s performance stands on his massive shoulders.
“I had a nice little lunch with him,” Billy Dee Williams told Radio Times magazine of Donald Glover. “He’s a delightful young man. Extremely talented. But I don’t see him… I mean, when it comes to Lando Calrissian, there’s only one Lando Calrissian. I created that character.” However, he knows that Lando has to evolve with a new generation, so he offered Glover some advice to be more charming and mold the character to a new audience, set of demands, and artistic approach in the narrative. As the 86-year-old remarked, he already defined Lando in the 20th century, and now it’s time for Gambino to do the same for the 21st century.

Not only that, but Billy Dee Williams also suggested that there’s one way that Disney could convince him to return to the role. “Pay me a lot of money and I’ll sell my soul,” he told the publication. For those unaware, the entertainment company already did so for Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker in 2019, for which the New York City native reprised his iconic portrayal of Lando Calrissian 36 years after his last appearance as the character in 1983’s Return of the Jedi. We’ll see if he ever sells his soul again.
Meanwhile, Childish Gambino is working on possibly remastering and re-releasing his 2020 album 3.15.20. While that’s only based on social media teases, a lot of folks are expecting new music from him very soon. But if you’re more into the 40-year-old’s screen work, there’s plenty more where that came from as of late. For more news and the latest updates on Billy Dee Williams and Donald Glover, stick around on HNHH.
R. Kelly is still fighting for his presumed innocence in federal appeals court, and on Monday (March 18), his attorney took aim at the framework that seeks justice for his crimes. Moreover, Jennifer Bonjean argued that the prosecution stretched out RICO laws “to the point of absurdity,” meaning that they misconstrued many aspects of this case for criminal gang activity. Not only that, but she believes this could set a dangerous precedent moving forward when it comes to other groups and crimes that RICO could wrongfully cover. During a hearing for the Court of Appeals of the Second Circuit, Bonjean told a judge panel that his employees were just staffers who did their job, not co-conspirators pushing crimes as RICO outlines.
Furthermore, she believes prosecutors were “preposterous” in their invocation of RICO laws to convict R. Kelly, a conviction and framework that she seeks to reverse. “The government has extended the RICO statute to a set of circumstances that is so beyond what the framers intended, which was to get at organized crime,” Jennifer Bonjean expressed. “Now, we’re talking about an organization with an alleged criminal, but not organized crime.” The singer’s 2021 conviction on nine RICO charges referenced his organized and long-running plot to gather and take advantage of women, both of age and underage. For this and much more, he received a 30-year prison sentence in 2022.

Regardless, at Monday’s hearing Jennifer Bonjean claimed that R. Kelly’s employees knew nothing of these crimes. Since the government could not prove otherwise, she argued, then RICO laws and convictions shouldn’t apply here. “The defendant had a system in place that lured young people into his orbit and then took over their lives,” Assistant U.S. Attorney Kayla Crews Bensing counter-argued. She brought up evidence that the disgraced R&B star’s team knew enough of what was going on, including testimony that one of his colleagues approached a 16-year-old at a McDonald’s, gave her his number, and told her to call him. In addition, another employee alleged to have answered phones for the Chicago native’s “girlfriends,” and according to this worker, some of them were “mid-aged teenagers.”
“This is all evidence that the jury was entitled to infer that Kelly’s inner circle knew what was going on: that he was recruiting and maintaining underage women for sexual activity,” Bensing stated. While federally overturned convictions, Bonjean achieved this for Bill Cosby back in 2021 for similar crimes. After Monday’s hearing, which comprised of a lot of legal muddy water, the court will decide on this appeal in the next few months. “RICO is looking at organizations, that are then used to commit criminal acts,” Judge Denny Chin remarked. “It doesn’t have to be a criminal organization. It could be a completely legitimate organization. But if it engages in racketeering activity, it violates RICO.” For more news and updates on R. Kelly, stay posted on HNHH.
N3on is a pretty popular and controversial name in the streaming world, recently getting unbanned from Kick after his apology to an underage fan he threatened. But that’s not all that he’s had to answer for as of late, as he was also confronted by rapper DD Osama. The interaction appeared live on the social media personality’s stream, in which Osama traveled with his entourage as well. He confronted the content creator for disrespecting his dead brother, which he did by dancing to the Kyle Richh song “Notti Bop.” It’s overall a pretty ugly and sensitive topic, but one that he still took lightly, and that Notti’s brother didn’t appreciate.
Not only did N3on disrespect Notti, but also DD Osama himself by calling him a transphobic slur and telling him to “suck his d**k.” During their confrontation, the “Baby Wait” MC told the streamer that he doesn’t know the streets that Osama is from, and that he’s just a “nerd.” However, it wasn’t a particularly hostile or combative approach, as N3on wanted to offer his sincere apologies and Osama wanted to make him understand why he was wrong and put him in his place. It could’ve been much worse.
For those unaware with DD Osama, he’s been making waves in the Harlem drill scene and the wider culture of New York hip-hop for a couple of years now. Last year, he had some high-profile collaborations such as the Coi Leray-assisted “Upnow” and the recent Luh Tyler collab “Pup.” As for N3on, he’s been in a lot of drama and controversy for a while, but his profile and viewership remains quite large. If anything, a situation like this is the type of thing that only works in his favor, at least from a popularity perspective.
After all, the streamer has spoken with Antonio Brown and is in beefs or disagreements with plenty of other creators. Overall, hopefully he can learn that he got pretty lucky in this case, and that such disrespect could come back to haunt him. We’ll see whether this is a quick learning process.

It goes without saying that being a major star like Cardi B comes with a great deal of pressure. According to her, the fear of being criticized often holds her back from sharing how she feels. During a recent appearance on Big Boy’s Neighborhood, the hitmaker opened up about being afraid to say much of anything about polarizing topics. The femcee claims that this is because she doesn’t want to get “canceled.” She explained that while critics frequently accuse her of being scared to release new music, the truth of the matter is that she’s scared to do “everything.”
“That’s why I just disappear for a long time because I feel like fame stripped me from myself. And now I’m like being back to myself,” she described. “There’s a lot of music critics that just be like, ‘Cardi is scared to drop an album. She’s scared to drop music.’ No, I’m scared to do everything. I’m scared to talk about politics, I’m scared to talk about my life, I’m scared to talk about anything.”
Fortunately, however, Cardi hasn’t let her fears stop her from sharing her music completely. Today, for example, she unveiled her highly-anticipated new single, “Enough (Miami).” She also teamed up with SZA to hop on a remix of Flo Milli’s viral hit “Never Lose Me” which dropped today. This all appears to be a part of Cardi’s return to her old self, which she teased in a heartfelt apology to fans last week.
“I want to apologize to my fans. To my fans, to myself, and to the people that love me for losing myself,” she told viewers during a livestream. “This has been a really hard journey to be back myself again.” What do you think of Cardi B admitting that she’s afraid of getting canceled? Are you surprised, or not? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below, and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.
Julieanna Marie Goddard, known professionally as YesJulz, is someone who can be more accurately labeled as infamous rather than famous. Julz has been the subject of multiple controversies throughout her social media and influencing career, many of which have to do with her inappropriate statements about race. As a result, she has been called out and canceled online for a variety of reasons. Most recently, YesJulz was publicly fired by Kanye West. Here are five times YesJulz has been called out.
The most recent scandal surrounding YesJulz started when Kanye West put out a statement concerning his personality. He announced that Julz would no longer be working on his latest Vultures project. YesJulz had been working as a promoter for the collaborative album between Ye and Ty Dolla Sign. Following the news, alleged screenshots from the Yeezy chief of staff Milo Yiannopolus were leaked, which stated that Julz was being fined over $7m for violating an NDA.
In 2019, rapper and singer Earl Sweatshirt also had some things to say about YesJulz. His call-out came following her most recent racism accusation at the time due to a freestyle rap she performed on a radio show. Earl Sweatshirt tweeted that someone needed to “jump affirmative julz on some healthy nonlifethreathenin shit”. This wasn’t the first time he had made a public statement regarding Julz as he had previously shown no sympathy for her tearful apology video after a clip of her saying the N-word was leaked.
Joe Budden and YesJulz have clashed a few times in the past. The most notable of these was in 2019. Budden absolutely dragged her on The Joe Budden Podcast With Rory And Mal with a series of insults, including “Casey Anthony Face” and “Jason Williams Face.” Budden also addressed Julz’s recent appearance on the Easily Offended podcast with Murda Mook and ItzBizkit. He called her out, claiming she had lied that he had made a move on her. Moreover, he described her as “entitled,” and pointed out how she disrespected and degraded Black women.
Scottie Beam
I have to keep this simple because I have work to do. Everyone knows you slept your way into this industry. Secondly, @YesJulz where are you? I’m in Newark. I am also in Jersey City on Fridays I’m in the city all the time. Send me your pin. Now. You and your black friends.
In the disastrous Easily Offended episode, YesJulz didn’t only call out Joe Budden, but also called out Scottie Beam. She claimed that the State Of The Culture host had threatened her following the release of her racist freestyle. Moreover, she insisted that Beam did not want her to exist in the same Hip Hop spaces that she did. Beam was quick to clap back at Julz on Twitter, alleging that Julz slept her way into the industry.

The last person Julz called out in the Easily Offended episode was Karen Civil. She stated that both Civil and Beam were unhappy that she got opportunities in hip-hop. She specifically said that Civil didn’t respect the work she had done for years on the “Rolling Loud” concert in Miami. Evidently, Civil wasn’t letting that slide. She also clapped back at Julz, tweeting that she didn’t care about whatever opportunities Julz did or didn’t get.
Over the last few months, Diddy has been hit with lawsuit after lawsuit, packed with multiple allegations. When Cassie accused the mogul of sexual assault in November 2023, the news was all over the internet. It was settled quickly, barely a day after it was filed. However, Diddy has not gotten respite since then as he has had other allegations and lawsuits to worry about.
Arguably the biggest right now, as well as the most recent, is the $30 million lawsuit filed by Rodney “Lil Rod” Jones. The producer worked closely with Diddy for a while and was heavily involved in creating The Love Album (2023). NBC News reported that Jones’ lawsuit was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York on February 26, 2024. Reportedly 73 pages long, the document details several allegations mounted against Diddy. More importantly, the case is far from settled, which means Diddy may head to court. Here’s a breakdown of the wildest allegations in the lawsuit.

As aforementioned, Rodney Jones worked closely with Diddy throughout the making of The Love Album. According to the lawsuit, the producer lived and traveled with Diddy for long periods from September 2022 to November 2023. During this time, Jones allegedly witnessed multiple acts of misconduct, and “serious illegal activity” from the record executive. Among the most prominent is that Diddy allegedly had underage girls over at his parties. The lawsuit reportedly contains alleged screenshots showing underage girls at these gatherings. According to the documents, the girls were also given laced drinks at Diddy’s behest.
Drugging And Possible Rape

Throughout the 73-page lawsuit, Rodney Jones accuses Diddy of sexually assaulting him on different occasions. However, amidst it all, this particular allegation is arguably the heaviest sexual offense, if it turns out to be true. In the document, the producer reportedly says that he believes Diddy drugged him on February 2, 2023. While he’s not sure, Jones says that there’s a possibility he may have also been raped after being drugged. According to the lawsuit, he woke up naked, dizzy, and confused in bed with Diddy and two sex workers.

Furthermore, according to the lawsuit, Jones alleges that Diddy touched him inappropriately. The statement in the document claims that Diddy sexually harassed and assaulted Jones while he lived with Diddy at his Florida home. Allegedly, this also happened at Diddy’s home in New York, as well as on a yatch the mogul rented in the US Virgin Islands. Chiefly, the assault and harassment included “constant unsolicited and unauthorized groping and touching of his anus,” according to the lawsuit.
Grooming

The lawsuit also claims that Diddy allegedly tried “to groom Jones into accepting a homosexual relationship.” Explicitly stated in the document, the producer alleges that he was forced to work in Diddy’s bathroom as the executive showered naked in a glass enclosure. Subsequently, according to the lawsuit, Jones raised concerns about this arrangement to Diddy’s chief of staff. However, Kristina Khorram, the chief of staff, brushed it aside, dubbing the behavior “friendly horseplay.” She allegedly also stated that those acts were Diddy’s way of “showing that he likes you.” Jones didn’t buy that though, as his lawsuit also accuses Khorram of aiding and abetting her boss’ sexual assault of him.

Surprisingly, allegations of sexual assault are not the only things present in Jones’ lawsuit against Diddy. Allegedly, the producer also received threats of physical harm from the mogul who repeatedly exerted dominance and control over him. According to the document, Diddy sometimes threatened to “eat Mr. Jones’ face.” Additionally, the suit reportedly states that Diddy “informed Mr. Jones that he is willing to kill his mother, Janice Combs, if he must, in order to get what he wants, so he wouldn’t think twice to hurt Mr. Jones.”
Forced To Perform Sexual Acts On Sex Workers

According to the lawsuit, Diddy allegedly forced Rodney Jones to procure sex workers on several occasions. However, that wasn’t all. The suit also alleges that Diddy pressured the producer to engage in unwelcome sexual acts with these sex workers. This was allegedly done to please the music mogul. To aid in soliciting these workers, Diddy allegedly provided Jones with “an exclusive Bad Boy baseball cap.” According to the lawsuit, the producer was required to wear this cap to a Miami establishment “as a signal to any sex worker he approached” that Diddy was in town. The suit claimed that it was meant to signify that Diddy had sent Jones to recruit them.
Diddy’s Admittance To Gun Violence
Another damning allegation against Diddy, a statement in the lawsuit claims that Diddy bragged about getting away with shooting other people. Jones alleges that Diddy forced him to watch as he displayed guns, and bragged about gun violence. Furthermore, another statement claims that Diddy admitted to being responsible for a shooting in a nightclub in New York in 1999. This alleged shooting involved rapper Shyne who was subsequently sentenced to 10 years in jail.
